The Changing Face of 'Wednesday': Is Season 2 Losing Focus? Reddit Reacts

I’ve been following the buzz around Wednesday Season 2, and honestly, it’s a mixed bag for fans. While some celebrate the show’s bold new directions, others feel it’s lost some of the sharp focus and charm that made Season 1 so addictive.

To get a clearer picture, I dove into Reddit’s discussions — and here’s what real viewers are saying.

First up, a lot of fans are noticing that Season 2 feels a bit different in how it treats the main character:

"Like I barely saw Enid… Even Wednesday’s screen time was much shorter."
For many, Wednesday isn’t as front and center as before, which is a surprise since the show is named after her.

Then, there’s a common theme about the story feeling a little too crowded:

"I... feel that they repeated cool concepts from throughout season 1… overcrowding."
Some viewers think the new season tries to cram in too many ideas and plotlines, which sometimes makes it feel chaotic or unfocused.

Another interesting point Redditors make is about the tone and focus shifting toward the entire Addams Family:

"This series is more of a regular The Addams Family series compared to Season One’s wholly Wednesday-focused affair."
It seems Season 2 broadens its scope, giving more room to other family members and the overall atmosphere — but at the cost of Wednesday’s intense spotlight.

So, from what I see and what fans say, Season 2 of Wednesday is definitely darker and more ambitious, but it also risks losing the sharp, singular punch that made Season 1 so gripping.

Are you a fan of the new direction, or do you miss the focus on Wednesday herself? Either way, it’s clear the show is evolving — for better or worse.
